Akamai Technologies (AS20940)
Akamai Technologies (AS20940) is the autonomous system behind Akamai's content delivery and edge platform, spanning more than 4,350 edge points of presence across over 130 countries and interconnecting with upwards of 1,200 networks. It carries web, media and software delivery and is the system Akamai peers on. The Prolexic scrubbing network runs separately, so a connection here does not carry DDoS mitigation — but Akamai's cloud compute regions launched from 2023 onward are reachable only through AS20940, so one interconnect now covers both the edge and the cloud.
For an access or hosting network in colocation, Akamai is among the larger sources of inbound traffic, and a direct connection moves that volume off metered transit while shortening the path to the cache actually serving it. Akamai peers openly wherever both networks meet at an exchange and considers private interconnect case by case, typically on 100G optics in major metros. Network operators can also apply to host Akamai-supplied cache hardware: Akamai provides and manages the servers, the operator provides rack space, power and addressing.
